Life and death is an eternal proposition and an insurmountable chasm for humanity. However, there is a group of people in the world who can decipher thePassword of death and make the deceased "speak." They are forensic scientists. In 1247 AD, a Song Dynasty official, at the age of 61, completed a groundbreaking work. This book recorded his lifelong experiences in resolving cases and exonerating the innocent, as well asMysterious and bizarre autopsy methods. The publication of this work heralded the birth of a new discipline, and its author was the founder of forensic medicine worldwide—Song Ci. From the Southern Song Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, successive governments regarded "Collected Cases of Washing Away Injustice" as a guide for examining corpses and injuries. Even today, its inspection concepts are highly regarded. Forensic medicine has developed and improved in this way, enabling it to convey messages from the deceased and uncover truths for the living! In this series, we will travel through time, using history as a mirror, to examine the evolution and development of forensic medicine over the past 800 years.
